JAKARTA - The Head of the DKI Jakarta Environmental Agency, Asep Kuswanto, admitted that he received reports of young people who gathered and hung out in the Dukuh Atas area, Sudirman, often littering.

At present, the public is indeed highlighting the phenomenon of residents of Citayam, Bekasi and Bojonggede invading the General Sudirman area. Mainly in the Kendal Tunnel, BNI City Airport Station area, and Dukuh Atas MRT Station, Central Jakarta.

"We only received the report in the Kendal Tunnel area yesterday. It turns out, there is a gathering place, but they still don't care about the environment," Asep said when met in the Ancol area, North Jakarta, Tuesday, July 5.

Therefore, Asep said this week his party would alert a number of cleaners to ensure that the area where the youth gathered was kept clean.

"This week, we are trying to put officers there to socialize about cleanliness. Because indeed, even though it is a gathering place, those who gather there must also care, at least throw out the garbage. Put the garbage in its place," said Asep.

In addition, Satpol PP officers and officers will also disseminate information to residents to maintain cleanliness. Then, in the near future, the DKI Provincial Government will begin to impose sanctions on those who still litter.

"Yesterday we also coordinated with Pak Satpol PP DKI and hopefully there will be (officers). At first we appealed, but later there will be action," he said.

Recently, the Sudirman area has been in the spotlight. Young people from outside Jakarta such as Depok, Bogor, and Bekasi make this location their gathering place.

Not a few of the teenagers took pictures to create video content on their respective social media. They also maximize their appearance by preening and various styles of clothing.
